Buying a condo in The Wilshire can be tricky. There are no historical sales trends (like you can find from some of Houston’s top performing luxury condos) because it is a new highrise construction. There are also a lot of new (ongoing and planned) projects in the area which raises uncertainty on access, type of establishments nearby, views, future value, etc.

- Gretchen & Brad Richter

“We relocated to Texas from out of state 3 years ago, and Paige’s intimate knowledge of Houston neighborhoods, valuations, trends, and pitfalls was simply unmatched. We would never have been able to find our perfect home without her. She was calm and focused when everything seemed most challenging — a true professional and advocate who has become a dear friend. We are grateful to have met her!”

“Paige demonstrated all qualities you want in a realtor – knowledgeable, attentive, responsive, patient. She put us into our first dream home, and due to that experience, we’ve returned to her time and again for our other real estate needs. You will quickly realize after working with Paige that while she focuses on completing your deal, her endgame is to ensure her clients’ needs are preserved and satisfied.”
